Boilers are perfect for the uk. We have an abundance of clean North Sea gas. That should be jobs for the people who supply cheap gas to the uk. To keep prices low jobs high skills high and a booming economy. Instead the government have been hoodwinked into thinking that fitting millions of heat pumps that are inefficient and manufactured abroad are the best option. So much so they have to regulate them into existence. It’s a joke!

Question: If you can only charge a powerwall at 5kW max then whats the point of being able to hook up up to 20kW of solar into one powerwall?

Does the Powerwall 3 work with 3 phase, it’s a real limitation with Powerwall 2 that only 1 phase is utilised. I’m in Australia and I want the Powerwall however installers are pushing me to BYD as my house is 3 phase. The BYD is terrible for software, doesn’t automatically switch over in power outages, it’s only benefit is it supports each phase

Very good video, please keep the content coming. I’d like to see more solar panel installs that have shade problems.

I’ve already asked online for a quote but I’d like to ask a question. Can you use micro inverters with the Tesla wall 3?

On a new build VAT can be reclaimed. Your price will include VAT (and delivery) which is charged to the customer. So how could I the end client reclaim that VAT element?. Tesla are only supplying to accredited installers wheras other products like the Givenergy All in 1 can be purchased from a wholesaler with a trade discount and vat recovered back.

How did EV Man's brother get past border control at Watford Gap and all the way to Essex? Bloody illegals! 🤣

How is the AC from the panel converted back to DC for battery storage? Does the battery have a AC to DC rectifier for charging from the PV panels and the grid? And I guess the battery must have an internal inverter for DC to AC when discharging?

Thank you for informative video.

I note there is a Gateway 2 and a Gateway 3. I understand that the latter is simpler / cheaper and can only do whole house backup. But is a Gateway needed at all if you don’t want / need home backup (which is an off grid capability that has an EPS function to deal with power cuts)?

rubbish content and misleading title - no installation info at all - just 2 blokes chatting

if the gateway is there.. then why does it have regulations around how much battery varible output you can have? Isnt that the whole idea of the gateway to isolate you from the grid in the first place?

What would happen if you painted your roof white before the bifacial panels were installed?

Another good video as always! Can you please do a bill comparison video on Efficient boilers vs Hybrid Boiler. I know they always use the cheapest option but just confused as surely gas is always the cheapest option. Needs explaining pleaae. Really looking at getting one but can see no comparable videos

Where is the installation video ?.....this is just 2 verbally challenged blokes attempting to talk !!!

Great video. Such a shame we can't get them in Ireland.

Can you install this in a garage that is part of the house? Is there a fire risk or are LPF cells not a problem when regularly charged to full on hot days?

The question everybody wants to know the answer to, but nobody seems to know for sure is:- can you connect more than one of these batteries?

Fantastic guys. This video was so informative that I have just purchased one and looking forward to my insterlation |Tuesday 23/07/24 ..

0:25 I’d be more concerned about the EMP from the nuclear blast than the functionality of a gateway, which would have been fried.

Just buy a powerwalls from BYD!

Have placed my order for PW3 and solar with Heatable - looking forward to it!

How well does this integrate with the REA Fusion 2 panels you sell? Can they be added straight to the PW3 or would you still recommend the micro inverters? If you dont need the micro inverters, and I read the installation time is hours less, I'd imagine this would be a good cost saving?

Great video as always. I am currently considering a qoute for a further 18 panels on top of 8 already ordered for the garage. One of your points made in the video is the benefits of start up voltage providing the benifits of micro invertors. My qoute includes a tesla powerwall 3 as well as 18 enphase microinvertors. Why would I need both apart from the ability to monitor each panel individually with the microinverters?

Waiting for this to release in Australia. The variable output modes are a nice feature. The cost for installation here will be interesting. I want to change my 8Kw Fronius inverter to a Powerwall3 if it makes sense money wise . The waiting list here will be huge I imagine.

power = kw, energy = kwh, you don't store power, you store energy. This stuff is already really complicated for the average consumer, helps to use the right language.

Great video, terrific production values. Question please. I have a solar array, from early 2011 with a very high FIT payment level. Can I fit a Powerwall and still receive the same level of FIT? Also could I have another solar array too, even if it needs to be separate from the original and still receive the FIT for the original set up. Sorry for so many questions, but I'd really like a Tesla Powerwall and if possible more solar. But I'd not want to sacrifice the very good FIT I'll receive for another 12 years.

Just a quick question so for me I would want the full 11kw discharge rate as I have a 10.5kw shower , but your saying that the grid decides that for me ? Or you talking about the amount of solar I can send back to the grid ?

so is it possible for me with a g98 3.68kwh 10 yr old inverter on FITs able to swap out my inverter and slot this straight in, and increase my current solar pv from 4kwh (250w panels) to the max i can squeeze on my roofs all without any extra paperwork/notifications ???

Good video as always.

It’s not all in one if you have to have a gateway with it too. All in 2 !

Glad to see people appreciate my dad’s ability with excel XD thanks for giving him more of an ego than he already has after this 😂😂😂

It's not about the sun ,all you need is daylight.

What you mean by REA system ....its just a module right ?? Enphase micro inverter system startup voltage is just 22 volt .It starts the system with low sunlight and can this be obtained from any decent module out in UK market.??

My thermostat won’t turn my heating on on auto mode any advise it is a new 340022 EHE0200322

Nice video. Recognise some of the installers from our job 🙂We had our heat pump installed (1950s house) before solar/battery and it's performing really well. Smart tariff has helped a bit.

Another amazing video. Thanks

I'm sure your business model will polorise opinions, but unfortunately we have had too many years of what I'm sure is a minority of shoddy, unreliable trades damaging customer confidence. If someone knows a local trades person who has a good reputation, great use them. But very few of us know someone, so it's reassuring to know that a company like Heatable exists. Through your videos you are building a strong brand name which people will associate with quality...take care of it. After all, if a Yorkshire man (Mr Alan Hart) is willing to give his seal of approval you must be good 😃.

Are you saying home cover doesn’t cover the cost of repairing a boiler?

Was told to avoid the Giv Energy when I went through with the sales guy. Apparently had non-stop problems with them and Heatable wouldn't recommend them.

Also why so far from camera I cant see a thing on mobile youtube

Great vid guys! One small thing, operating temperature is -10 to 50 degrees internally. When the battery drops below 0 degrees you'll see reduced performance output. Thankfully, when that happens as the system starts charging/discharging it will generate it's own heat pretty quickly to get that output back at what you'd expect. All our equipment is IP65 rated and fine to be fitted outside, all we ask is that you also fit a small canopy above to stop any debris culminating on top of the system restricting airflow. Thanks!

Is the battery made up of smaller modules? I was thinking that in 10+ years time, if its degraded below a usable point can you just replace a module (or modules) or do you need to get a completely new battery (which maybe a lot more efficient in 10 years time)

An excellent instructional video with a clear voice. Thank you.

No, sorry but that issue with shaded pwm panels has been fixed with a bypass diode for some years now. These things are not clearly advertised

I have a DC panel system here in SA and I designed it so that each panel give full power under circumstances without being effected by another panel lower performance. Also I can see each panel's performance in real time and over a long time. So, what you are saying is NOT true for all systems. You do like Lithium battery salesman, comparing the more expensive battery to the cheapest, low performance lead acid battery where in fact there are other lead acid batteries performing just as good as lithium. I have both lead and lithium combined for a long time now so I know how it work.

Giv- energy = crap

0:46 it's only a 🟩SCREEN! 🤯

If only they could sort their software out because the hardware and specs seem solid. Do you guys do Fox ESS at all? Heard good things but they don't seem popular so wondering about that.

This or a powerwall 3?
